    My wife shot her new 9mm EZ yesterday...short range report

    Hunting guide killed by bear: client throws him a handgun

    I do feel extremely sorry for the guide and his family but what was he thinking of " Chubon went for a Glock that his guide had left with their gear a few yards uphill. " Why didn't he have the Glock in a holster on his person? Perhaps he was afraid it would fall out as he was cutting up the...
